The Franciscan Center

Today I finalized my new semester site and took a tour of the Franciscan Center for the poor and the homeless. I am really excited to start working with adults for a change. I think it will really help me grow as a teacher and I will be able to learn from them as they learn from me. The site is farther than my last site, but i tihnbk it will be worth it because this time we can leave supplies at the site. I plan on creating lesson plans far in advance this time, too, because I was informed that the clients of the center sometimes like to go off of the lesson plan and do their own thing. I think this is really great and a sign of incredible creativity! I'm also going to make flyers in advance for the classes to be put up in the center. Hopefully I will be able to generate more interest! All of the volunteers and employees of the center seem wonderful, they were all very friendly! I'm glad to be able to work with them.
